Question before I vote:

If the new constitution does not pass, we do keep the old one right? I have no problem with forming the committee and if what they come up with is superior to what we have using it, but I dont want to throw out the old before we see the results

You sort of implied that, but I want to make sure

You are correct. The current Code of Laws remains unaffected until the main body of the Constitution drafted by the committee is passed by 67% in a poll lasting 7 days. If it is not passed, the current Code of Laws is undisturbed.

I think I'll hold off on the nomination thread for another day. Give the Euros and the early Americans another chance to vote and comment.

Well, how quickly things change! All those who wanted a short, simple CoL now want a complicated, long document that will take weeks to create. Anyways, I must continue to say that our problem is not with the Col but with ministers in the past who have left us hanging causing confusion and disorder.

Yes. Might as well get the problems out of the way now. It will give me more time to formulate a tech plan too.

...and a CoL that doesn't provide for that happening.

This is about simplifying. And fixing. And plugging holes such you just mentioned. Hopefully mostly in one shot, rather than piece meal over the course of the game.

I vote Yes.

The CoL should be the 3 s's:

Short, Simple, And Sweet.

Maybe this thread should be topped till the poll closes, to make sure everyone sees it. I know there's no precedent for it, but this is the first time we've had a vote on rewriting the CoL, isn't it? (Oh, and *bump*.)

hi ,

one can hardly say no , however the people who have voted NO can only explain their no , so that we know what , why , etc , and maybe can bring chances in it , ....

indeed there is need to keep certain polls open longer , so that the max of people have the chance to vote

and there should be 5 people in the courtroom

have a nice day

I think we can keep the thread on page 1 without topping it.

Glad I waited to open the nominations thread. It is getting closer, and nothing is certain yet. Only 36 voters as of now. 26 for and 10 against.

I think that this is the best way to do what we need, but I also agree with jdjdjd that they should focus on what is wrong instead of trying to rewrite the whole thing. Just use this to make the neccessary ammendments to the existing CoL


(and bump, the closing day aproaches)

hi ,

, we should take a mix from both , ....

have a nice day

[notyoueither]

Not very long to go.

It got a ways down the pages.

Last chance for people to be heard.
